Episode 432: How to Step Up and Play a Bigger Game This Holiday Season
“What’s keeping you safe is keeping you stuck” – Amy Porterfield
In today’s episode, I hone in on how to take action and actually do the scary things that will ignite your business before the holidays!
Start expanding your audience, getting more visibility, and growing your sales now. If you’re putting it off until October or November, you’re doing your business a huge disservice.
Today’s episode is gold because I dive into amazing takeaways from a powerhouse women’s event that I recently went to. These transformative tips reminded me to play a bigger game and to get out of my own way. So now I’m thrilled to share them with you.
Here’s a few incredible tools and realizations that I touch on from brilliant speakers to help you step up and play it big instead of play it safe.
Stop Hiding Behind Your Business
My friend, Amy Porterfield, blew me away. She called out what so many of us are guilty of – when you protect yourself and hide in your business, you keep yourself stuck. You’re the one keeping yourself from playing a bigger game.
If you’ve created businesses that make you feel safe, chances are you’ll usually strive to keep feeling safe. To get “unstuck”, you need to expand beyond what feels comfortable.
Awareness is Everything
When you want something, you need to become aware of how your actions either contribute to or hinder it. The key is not to feel shame, but to bring awareness to what’s really going on.
Become aware of where you’re hiding. Do you need to push yourself to pitch things that might stretch you, instead of hanging around at the same shows and events? Do you keep yourself busy, or do you do things that are actually making traction in your business?
Build Your Business on the “Nos”
As business owners, we can be so scared of the word “no” – so much so that we let fear of that word debilitate our business’ growth.
What if you could reframe the fear that we have of putting ourselves out there? Maybe it’s time you use each “no” as an opportunity to stretch your confidence muscle and learn about what people actually want? Think of the magic that would happen if you used them as fuel to push through and keep going.
